Buyer’s Guide: Women’s Road Bikes

Colnago CLD 105

8 / 9

This new model marks an ambitious entry into the women’s market for the revered Italian brand. Similar to the CLX men’s model, it’s built for a smooth-yet-responsive ride on everything from quick jaunts to gran fondos. Its women-specific top tube and taller head tube put riders in a slightly more upright position. This model features a budget-conscious blend of Shimano 105 and Tiagra components, but has the posh looks one expects from Colnago.
